Does Anyone make a better steering box

For our OBS trucks, besides the A1 Cardone, or Fenco Remans? I put a Reman on the truck a few months ago, and it's already sloppier than the one I took off. I checked another reman we had on the shelf and it was sloppy right out of the gate.

I don't particularly like doing this job, and would really not care to do it a third time , I'm willing to pay a little more for a quality box! Any suggestions?

Re: Does Anyone make a better steering box

RedHead steering box is the only option IMO if your looking to replace it.

Re: Does Anyone make a better steering box

Has anyone used the AGR stuff? I like the idea of the RedHead, but the AGR is in stock@ Summit, and I can't put the truck down for a week+

Re: Does Anyone make a better steering box

Call them. They may have one already and you can possibly send your core in after.
